Another Demon Lord In Tensura

Chapter 16: The Dragon Egg



The ruins were ancient, their walls covered in runes that pulsed with a faint, otherworldly light. Kali and her team moved cautiously through the crumbling corridors, their footsteps echoing in the silence. The air was thick with mana, and the sense of power was almost overwhelming.

As they reached the heart of the ruins, they found it—a massive chamber, its walls adorned with carvings of dragons and humans locked in battle. At the center of the chamber, resting on a pedestal of stone, was a **dragon egg**. It was larger than any egg Kali had ever seen, its surface covered in intricate patterns that glowed with a soft, golden light.

Kali approached the egg, her draconic form glowing softly as she placed a hand on its surface. The moment her claws touched the egg, she felt a surge of energy, a connection that was both ancient and powerful.

"This egg… it's alive," she said, her voice filled with awe. "We need to take it back to Eryndor."

As the team prepared to leave the ruins, Nyssa stepped forward, her emerald-green eyes filled with reverence. "Leader, there is something you should know. Long ago, a dragon lived in this forest. It was a guardian, a protector of the land. But the humans, in their greed and fear, hunted it down and killed it. This egg… it must be the last remnant of that dragon."

Kali's flames flickered softly as she considered Nyssa's words. "Then this egg is more than just a relic. It's a symbol of what we're fighting for—a future where humans and demi-humans can coexist without fear or hatred."

The team nodded, their expressions filled with determination. They carefully secured the egg and began the journey back to Eryndor.

The journey back was uneventful, the team moving quickly and cautiously to ensure the egg's safety. As they approached Eryndor, the villagers gathered to welcome them, their eyes wide with curiosity and excitement.

Kali stood before the crowd, her draconic form glowing softly as she held the egg aloft. "People of Eryndor, we have returned with a great discovery. This egg is the last remnant of a dragon that once protected this forest. It is a symbol of our strength and our unity. Though it may not hatch immediately, it will serve as a reminder of what we are capable of achieving together."

The villagers cheered, their voices filled with hope and pride. The egg was placed in a specially constructed chamber in the central tower, its surface glowing softly as it absorbed the mana in the air.

Kali knew that the egg was not ready to hatch, but she also knew that it held immense potential. She consulted with Feloria and the dryads, their knowledge of nature and magic proving invaluable.

"The egg is dormant," Feloria explained, her emerald-green eyes filled with determination. "It will require a significant amount of mana and time to awaken. But with the right conditions, it could one day hatch."

Kali nodded, her flames flickering softly. "Then we'll ensure that it has everything it needs. This dragon could be the key to Eryndor's future."

The council worked tirelessly to create a suitable environment for the egg, their skills and abilities making them a formidable team. The dryads used their **Nature's Ward** to create a protective barrier around the egg, while Feloria and the elves channeled their **Nature's Blessing** to enhance the flow of mana.

The chamber housing the egg became a place of reverence and wonder. The walls were adorned with carvings and runes, their designs inspired by the ancient ruins. The egg itself rested on a pedestal of stone, its surface glowing softly as it absorbed the mana in the air.

Kali often visited the chamber, her draconic form glowing softly as she gazed at the egg. She felt a deep connection to it, as if it were a part of her. She knew that one day, it would hatch, and when it did, Eryndor would be ready.

The dragon egg became a symbol of hope and unity for the people of Eryndor. It reminded them of their strength and their potential, and it inspired them to work together to build a brighter future.

Kali stood at the center of it all, her draconic form glowing softly in the sunlight. She felt a sense of pride and accomplishment, but she knew the challenges were far from over. The humans may no longer pose a threat, but the world was vast, and there were still many secrets yet to be uncovered.
